Set in the scenic woods and ridgetop above McDowell, Tonoloway Farm offers sweeping views of the Bullpasture River Valley within a landscape of productive fields and mature forest. Thoughtfully managed for both natural beauty and historic significance, the property reflects the best of Appalachian character and stewardship. The farm’s established syrup operation, available to convey with the sale, is nationally recognized for producing maple, hickory, and its celebrated black walnut syrup. The cozy two-bedroom cabin features granite countertops, a Yotul wood-burning stove, and a wide front porch overlooking the McDowell battlefield. Nearby, a 2,600 sq. ft. timber-framed workshop offers generous space for business or creative pursuits. In addition to abundant wildlife, the grounds are rich with raspberries, apples, pears, grapes, peaches, cherries, currants and more, supported by a spring-fed water system with a 1,700-gallon reservoir, a backup well, and a 4.1kW solar array for self-sufficiency. The property is protected by a conservation easement that preserves its natural and historic character while still allowing for additional building and limited subdivision within defined parameters.
